Debbie Reynolds, “The Data Diva” talks to Nneka J. McGee, Ed.D., J.D. Former Chief Academic Officer San Benito Consolidated Independent School District (CISD) Texas, Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Education Researcher and Advocate. We discuss the critical topics of artificial intelligence (AI) and privacy in education. Nneka McGee shares her career journey influenced by her parents, both mathematicians educated in the Jim Crow South. Her path took her from teaching mathematics to a deep dive into the potential and challenges of AI in education. The conversation opens with the importance of protecting the privacy of young students, particularly those under 13. Nneka stresses the importance of educational institutions and parents being vigilant about terms of service and data-sharing agreements to safeguard children’s privacy.

The discussion then explores AI's role in education, highlighting the fourth industrial age driven by AI and automation and its impact on teaching and learning. Nneka elaborates on the complexities of digital contracts, touching on various regulations like FERPA and COPPA in the US, and GDPR in Europe, that schools must navigate. She shares insights into the broader implications of data breaches and privacy violations, emphasizing schools' need to precisely understand and negotiate terms to protect all stakeholders.

If not appropriately managed, AI’s transformative potential versus its risks is a significant theme. Nneka expresses her wish for a balanced approach to AI in education, advocating for decision-making that includes diverse perspectives, especially from educators. She underscores the importance of teaching students technological skills, critical thinking, and agility to prepare them for future advances, such as quantum computing, and hope for Data Privacy in the future.
